Why Florida is waging war on lionfish

Florida is overrun with lionfish and the Sunshine State is trying to eat its way out of the invasion.

The first lionfish was found in the ocean here in 1985, believed to have been released from someone's personal aquarium. Since then, the fish -- native to the South Pacific and Indian Oceans -- have spread rapidly from the Gulf of Mexico to the coast of Rhode Island.

Now, Florida residents are waging war on the exotic fish that are harming the state's underwater ecosystem, reports CBS News correspondent David Begnaud.
